Intensive Treatment
in Adelaide

Three 90-minute hands-on sessions with Lee Stewart over three or four days — Neura Manual Therapy™, concentrated into one visit to Adelaide. Designed for long-standing conditions, and for people travelling from interstate or regional South Australia who can’t come in week after week.

Who It’s For

Is an Intensive Right for You?

An intensive suits people who want to make one trip count — and anyone who’d like longer, concentrated time with Lee.

You’re Travelling to Adelaide

You live interstate, in regional South Australia or overseas, and would rather make one trip than fit in weekly appointments.

Your Condition Is Long-Standing

Pain or symptoms that have lasted months or years — that spread, move around, or don’t make sense next to a “normal” scan.

You’ve Tried a Lot Already

Physio, chiro, massage or medication haven’t held, and you want a different, whole-person look at what’s keeping your symptoms going.

You Want Time to Go Deeper

Longer sessions, close together, with each one building on the last — rather than starting again every week or two.

Why Three Sessions, Close Together

Concentrated Care, Built Session by Session

Neura Manual Therapy™ looks at how your nervous system is protecting you — the guarding patterns that can keep pain and other symptoms going long after an injury. An intensive gives that work room: longer sessions, close together, each one starting where the last left off.

3 × 90-minute sessions One-on-one with Lee Over 3–4 days Prospect, Adelaide
  • Session one. A thorough history and an assessment of how your body is guarding, then your first hands-on treatment.
  • Session two. What has changed since the first session, and further into the patterns that matter most for you.
  • Session three. We build on what we’ve found, and talk through what to do when you’re home.
  • Between sessions. Time to rest and notice what changes — which is why the sessions are spread over three or four days rather than one.

What’s Included

Everything in Your Intensive

Three 90-Minute Sessions

One-on-one hands-on treatment with Lee — four and a half hours of Neura Manual Therapy™ in total.

Vibration Plate, PEMF & Vibroacoustic

As with every hands-on session: an optional ten minutes on the vibration plate after each session, and PEMF and vibroacoustic therapy where they suit you — all part of your sessions.

Dates Around Your Travel

We call you to find three or four days that fit your flights and where you’re staying — before you book anything else.

Wellness Studio, If You’d Like It

Sauna, red light, hydrogen, mHBOT and CO₂ therapy can sit around your sessions. Ask when we call — they’re booked separately.

How It Works

Screened First, Before You Commit

An intensive is a real commitment of your time and travel, so every one starts with a health screen. Lee reviews it to make sure an intensive is right for you before anything is booked.

Your Health Screen

Answer our health questionnaire online — about ten minutes, and the same one every new hands-on client completes. Already a Physio Now client? You won’t need to do it again.

Lee Reviews It

Lee reads your answers to make sure an intensive is the right fit — before anything is booked or paid.

A Deposit Holds Your Dates

Once you’re approved, we text you a secure link to pay your deposit online — or send it while you’re on the phone with us. Like your sessions, it’s claimable back through private health.

Your Intensive

We call you from 08 8351 2270 to plan your three 90-minute sessions over three or four days, around your travel, at our Prospect clinic.

Claiming

Private Health and Medicare Accepted

Your intensive sessions are physiotherapy sessions, and they can be claimed the same way.

Private Health

If your extras cover includes physiotherapy, you can claim a rebate on your sessions — the deposit included. The amount depends on your fund and level of cover. We offer HICAPS on-the-spot claiming where available, or an itemised receipt to claim yourself.

Fees & funding →

Medicare

With a GP Chronic Condition Management Plan (formerly a CDM or EPC plan), you can claim a Medicare rebate on up to five allied health sessions a year. Medicare and private health can’t both be claimed for the same session.

Lee Stewart — Physiotherapist and founder of Neura Manual Therapy

Who You’ll See

Lee Stewart

Registered physiotherapist · Founder, Neura Manual Therapy™

Lee founded Physio Now to provide careful, thorough physiotherapy for people with complex conditions. Studying advanced manual therapy — including Fascial Counterstrain, Craniosacral Therapy and Visceral Manipulation in the United States and France — led Lee to findings on the neurological patterns that drive chronic pain and dysfunction. Those patterns are what Neura Manual Therapy™ is designed to address.

Every intensive is with Lee, at the Physio Now clinic in Prospect.

The Intensive

Who is an intensive for?

People living with a long-standing (chronic) condition, and people travelling from interstate, regional South Australia or overseas who’d rather make one trip than come in week after week. Anyone who’d like longer, concentrated time with Lee can apply too.

What happens in the three sessions?

The first session starts with a thorough history and an assessment of how your body is guarding, then hands-on treatment. The second looks at what has changed and goes further into the patterns that matter most for you. The third builds on what we’ve found, and we talk through what to do when you’re home.

Why 90-minute sessions over three or four days?

Longer sessions give time to assess and treat in one visit, and sessions close together let each one start where the last left off. Spreading them over three or four days leaves time to rest and notice what changes between sessions.

Can I book an intensive if I live in Adelaide?

Yes. Intensives are designed with interstate and regional clients in mind, but anyone who’d like concentrated care can apply.

Can I add the sauna, red light or other wellness technologies?

Yes — sauna, red light, hydrogen, mHBOT and CO₂ therapy in our wellness studio can sit around your sessions. They’re booked separately; ask when we call and we’ll plan them in.

Screening, Booking & Claiming

Why do you screen people first?

An intensive asks a lot of your time and travel. Lee reads every health questionnaire first, so an intensive only goes ahead when it’s the right fit for you — before you commit to anything.

What happens after I complete the questionnaire?

Lee reviews your answers. If an intensive is right for you, we text you a secure link to pay your deposit, then call you from 08 8351 2270 to plan your three sessions around your travel.

Is a deposit required?

Yes — a deposit holds your intensive. Once you’re approved we text you a secure link to pay it online, and if you’d rather call us, we can text it while we’re on the phone. It’s claimable back through private health.

Do I need a referral?

Not to book privately. If you’d like to claim a Medicare rebate, you’ll need a GP Chronic Condition Management Plan first — see how to claim via Medicare.

Can I claim with my health fund?

Yes. If your extras cover includes physiotherapy, you can claim a rebate on your sessions, including the deposit. The amount depends on your fund and level of cover — see fees & funding.

Can I claim through Medicare?

Yes, with a GP Chronic Condition Management Plan (formerly a CDM or EPC plan). Medicare rebates up to five allied health sessions a year, and Medicare and private health can’t both be claimed for the same session. See how to claim via Medicare.
